It's a "Screw you" to those who would target someone for wearing one.

Good on Keith.

Or, are you baiting the community?

But I think the "Hoodie" thing is really stupid. Just my opinion. But watch Obama run from it. A million Hoodie March! Come on. Ridiculous. People are scared of Gang members in Hoodies. They see them on MSNBC murdering convenience store clerks for crack money. On the weekend. Obama will put the Kibosh on this on the quick. Million Hoodies v The Dopes. Do you realize how bad it looks? I have Hoodies and like them. By the way.

I just like my hoodies. They are comfortable. But you do not seem to be able to "get the drift". Try a little harder. I might be on your side.

"I just like my hoodies. They are comfortable. But you do not seem to be able to "get the drift". Try a little harder. I might be on your side."

...possibly be on my "side" with a comment like this:

"A million Hoodie March! Come on. Ridiculous. People are scared of Gang members in Hoodies."

I don't know of any statistically significant correlation between wearing hoodies and being a gangster.

I wear a hoodie most days, I'm about as stereotypically not-gangster as you can get. They make fun of me for having no style.

But on the CopShows a lot of the killers wear Hoodies. I have volunteered at the Food Bank but did not deal with the gangs. Just the homeless and down and out. But I think that people are scared of the kids with Hoodies. They think it is like a way to disguise. I hope this turns out well. I just wonder why the big publicity for this but not for the Blacks that get the railroad. No resources for defense. Stuck in the system. Lots of wrongful convictions or plea bargains even though innocent. What about when the accused is a Black Guy with no resources? That is the point I have been trying to make. Now they are leaving the family behind and using this tragedy to make hay about the law.

With Sandford being only a 2 hour drive for you...well I assume you will wear your Hoodie and attend the March and Rally. I couldn't imagine you not leaping at the amazingly historic opportunity to stand and be among the leaders of civil rights and justice.

They put the Kibosh on it because it is not polling well for Obama. Just like OWS.

A life out. Over what? But it is the tip of the Iceberg. There can be no justice for him now. But multiply this by thousands. That get no protest. He was walking home to his house. But never got there.

What you are referring to is the Tampa Bay Tea Party Rally...that event fizzled like flat Mt Dew. The Sandford Rally for Trayvon Martin is packed with supporters and has coverage by international media.

Keep up the great feedback.

I appreciate you too.

Put a kibosh on this? EO, what?

(Did not realize the President had that power...point to it in the Cnstitution please)

Troubled and concerned. You got it! Totally! I see all the energy channeled in all the wrong places. I am truly troubled and concerned. TX. I am going to attempt to make a difference.

Just the criminal justice system. Especially wrongful capital convictions. I will let everyone else sort out that.

Not saying I do, but one might...



RL

so I see the logic.

oh wait, is logic liberal?

I hope it got you thinking. I was running on about that. One thing leads to another ya know. Do you think that with the advances in DNA and pre-natal testing that one day people will get selective? In their offspring. I think it is a good question. Suppose they could have selective abortion? Ethical and moral questions will have to be answered.

About the only thing I can say to respond to this selectivity concept:

"I think a good product would be "Baby Duck Hat." It's a fake baby duck, which you strap on top of your head. Then you go swimming underwater until you find a mommy duck and her babies, and you join them. Then all of the sudden, you stand up out of the water and roar like Godzilla. Man those ducks really take off! Also Baby Duck Hat is good for parties." ~Jack Handey~

rather unfortunately.

Baby Ducks. Maybe if I had a periscope I could see where I was going...Where is the Party?

ON THE WEEKEND.

But watch Obama run from it. A million Hoodie March! Come on. Ridiculous. People are scared of Gang members in Hoodies. They see them on MSNBC murdering convenience store clerks for crack money. On the weekend. Obama will put the Kibosh on this on the quick.

Stupid posts.

He's standing in solidarity with a family that has had a child murdered.

Watch and learn. Bad polls. As all the horrible injustices continue. Obama is putting on the Kibosh. The wrongfully convicted will languish. In Jail. The plea bargained innocents will be in lockdown. And on it go as nobody cares. The million hoodie march will be dumped. But never mind what I think. Where is Sharpton? I thought there was a big protest in Sanford tonite????

First I'll answer the easy one. There is a protest and Al is there. Turn on the TeeVee or intertoobs for multiple sources of coverage.

The rest of your post... polls, injustices, kibosh.... You got me, I have no fucking clue what you're rambling on about.

Don't waste your energy on such dark matter.

...you can hardly be faulted for that.

But everybody knows what this is.

He'll get his pizza eventually.

They are tamping it down. I may be wrong. Just what it looks like to me. Could easily be nonsense. Just an opinion. Not productive in the polling.

i prefer thin crust, so this is good.

I like the self rising. Anyway I hope this all turns out for the better. Can you imagine the family? Whoa!. To me that is the worst of it. Not only losing the Son but having to deal with all this. Traumatica. Awful.

just that..... let's say "special".

Is how many poor blacks are railroaded in the system. By not letting Zimmerman get due process then it is easier for others not to have it. This will be adjudicated. But it is just one case. Many are on Death Row and Life Terms that are innocent. This is why. Zimmerman will be given every possible legal break. Thousands of others will not. When the Black Guy is the one charged they do not get the publicity. They get buried. I guess that is special. I hate these media extravaganzas.

involved in this. That was just precious. After reading all that other dumb shit you posted about contraception. It wouldn't surprise me if your head gear could pick up TV channels from Pakistan.

The fact that someone would try to find fault in what Keith did is ridiculous.

I am with you. Even Obama would be better than some GOP idiot. But not much. And I am not a bad person. I am the best.

Ive seen other people post them. Is it ok to do so?

Not much to add.

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Thu Mar 22, 2012, 10:22 PM, and the Jury voted 2-4 to LEAVE IT.

Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: No explanation given
Juror #2 voted to HIDE IT and said: To put it in context I read the other posts in the thread. Pretty clear this person is a troll or close to it. This post warrants a "hide," but I think the poster should be looked at as well.
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: No explanation given
Juror #4 voted to HIDE IT and said: I hope the TOS box was checked.
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: Well, Obama did continue most of the worst of bush's policies - wars, tax cuts, expanded terrorism, Homeland Security, etc.
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: No explanation given

Thank you very much for participating in our Jury system, and we hope you will be able to participate again in the future.

I did not know if I should join this site to post. But I really fell good talking to people I do not know. It is very refreshing to get all the opinions. I am in transition to a new ideology. Getting a lot of new ideas. I have not paid much attention for a long time. Most of the people are very thoughtful.

I'm a bit slow sometimes.

Some days around here in the Midwest, a hoodie is what is needed. I wore one in the grocery store today. I had shorts on but grabbed my hoodie because I KNEW IT WAS GOING TO BE FREEZING in there. I hate being cold. It's navy blue plain, no markings and soft and warm.

It made me smile to see Keith wearing one.
